Our family of 6 adults had a delightful week in the spacious 4BR/3 bath home managed by Philippe and Ann, who live 2 doors away and were welcoming hosts. On the banks of the Cele and the main road through Carbrerets, the home is a short walk from the boulangerie across from the moulin and the village center, which has a small grocery with everything you need. The backyard has a beautiful dining area under the limestone cliffs of Cabrerets. The home has been redone recently with floors of beautiful stone tile, a great stove, and clean, comfortable bathrooms. Everything worked.
Cabrerets is a lovely, quiet, unpretentious village with walks and bikerides going in a dozen directions, along the river, up into forests, up on to the plateau, or to several pech with cave paintings. Pech Merle is the closest and most famous, a 900m walk from the village. We especially enjoyed walks down the Cele to the Lot (don't miss the unused train trestles across the Cele and the Lot) and into the forests across the Cele, and the extraordinary bikeride up the Cele (Philippe has 5 bikes that are in great order). ~3KM north of Cabrerets one finds an ancient moulin built into the cliff where a large spring emerges to flow into the Cele.
We hope to return!

The Lot river valley is spectacular, and this house is beautifully situated to appreciate it. Very comfortable, roomy, charming, and user-friendly. A great spot to relax and to explore the area, including St.Cirque, the caves at Peche Merle, and Cahors.
That said, there were a few negatives which it would be good to be aware of:
-- the driveway exit is completely blind: we had one person cross the road to signal when it was safe to proceed. You can park across the street and avoid the problem, but it is an uphill hike that you might not want undertake with luggage.
-- the website says that linens are provided: they were not. The bed is comfortable and has a nice duvet on it, but there was only a mattress cover, no sheets and no towels. I suggest addressing this with the owner before booking. [Alex did bring a couple of towels on our 2nd day there after we requested them --but Nicole insisted that the website states that renters must provide their own linens....rather unrealistic for international travelers].
--Shower is tres modern, but difficult to regulate water temp
Wifi and washing machine worked well; kitchen had everything needed; short walk to a well-stocked grocery [narrow, curving road-- bring safety vests and bright flashlight if you will be walking after dusk]. We cleaned up after ourselves to avoid the steep housekeeping fee.
Bottom line: a great place to stay; a few minor challenges to deal with.
